The moments swiftly go and Lifers great fleet 
Deep in the twilight gloom still lingering lags.

DESCRIPTION OF ORGANS OF THE BRAIN 



INTRODUCTION. 

Simplicity and exactness, consistent with truthful ob- 
servation, are voiced in this publication. Pains-takingly we 
have pursued the study of Human-nature for a quarter of 
a century, and find it the most elevating of all sciences. 

It enables man to know more regarding his physical, 
mental and spiritual life, and shows him the folly of pur- 
suing his Creator with idolatrous adoration. He who made 
the worlds and all there is, commands observance of the 
laws of nature as the only stepping stone to higher things.

NOTICE TO EXAMINERS. 

In the application of Human science to reading character, 
the successful delineator necessarily takes into considera- 
tion the entire physical organization including the organic 
quality, temperament, health, digestive, circulatory and 
respiratory powers, the natural activity and excitability, 
together with the actual and relative developments of the 
several parts of the brain : from these several conditions he 
drays his conclusions of the actual and relative strength of 
the several functions, propensities, sentiments and facul- 
ties and of the character as a result of the combined action 
of all : it is strength therefore that is to be estimated and 
described rather than size of organs — size being but one of 
th<* several conditions requisite for strength. The dissatis- 
faction that practical delineators have met in not being able 
to mark a chart that would harmonize with their oral de- 
lineations is largely due to the fact that all charts hereto- 
fore have been based upon size and elements have b^en 
marked according to the size of their organs, which because 
of other conditions, is often far from representing the 
strength of the element Since strength is what gives char- 
acter and our aim being to describe mental powers, not phy- 
sical organs, the descriptions herein given are based upon 



s

strength leaving it for the examiner to determine from the 
several conditions what the actual strength is, and record 
the same according to his judgment regardless of the size 
of the organ. Throughout the entire, chart it has been our 
aim to make 7 describe the predominance of an element, 
while 6 gives more of its strong combinations; in most 
places 3 and 2 have been run together for the purpose of 
showing combinations where an element was weak and 
thereby bringing out the adverse influence of its deficien- 
cy; so that where examiners would call special attention 
to any element that is deficient, by marking it as low as 
3, the subject will get a much more complete description 
of the condition than if it were marked 4. Since the de- 
scriptions herein given are based entirely upon strength, 
examners are especially admonished not to mark too high. 
The custom of examiners of marking ordinary minds 6 and 
7 has not only been misleading to the subjects, but degrad- 
ing to the profession and has made it impossible to indicate 
by chart a strong or very strong mind w r hen such is met; 
therefore, if the brain development of a given organ is very 
large, but from other conditions its strength is estimated 
to be but moderate the examiner is earnestly requested to 
record its strength regardless of its size, and where the en- 
tire mind is but ordinary to indicate the same in the chart, 
using 6 and 7 only where extraordinary power is known to 
exist. 



AND FACULTIES OF THE MIND.

TO STUDENTS: 

Phrenology: (from Phren, the mind; logos, science or 
discourse. 

The science of the mind originated in the reading of 
character by definite signs found by the careful exami- 
nation of the human head and all that appertains thereto. 
It practically includes the study of man as a whole — his 
mental and physical condition as well. 

Be the brain ever so perfect, without the physical sup- 
port of the body it cannot fulfill its possibilities; there- 
fore, the examiner and student must take into consider- 
ation the entire man, never losing sight of the fact that 
mind is the measure of the man. Although he fails to ful- 
ly manifest, yet the tiead, its size and brain quality, reveals 
the same to the experienced examiner. It shows the long- 
ing of the imprisoned soul and its possibility under right 
conditions 

Such is the purpose and aim of phrenology and char- 
acter reading, to aid. direct, help, uplift, prepare the way 
and remove any obstacle in the way of the full exercise 
of all organs. 
The Skull or Cranium. 

The Skull is the bony covering of the Brain so construct- 
ed a? to best protect the noblest of all organs of our being. 



IO 



DESCRIPTION OF ORGANS OF THE BRAIN 



This covering; consists of eight bones so joined or united by 
seams or sutures that there is neverless some giving way 
to the often great preasure from within or sudden blows 
from without for a further protection. 

The Skuil is made of firm smooth plates of bones, be- 
tween which fine arteries distribute the marrow-like 
nourishment to the bones so as to enable the Skull to 
continue to develop and increase in size and change its 
surface to accommodate itself to the development of the 
Brain within the Skull. 

The Scalp is the thick outer covering of the Skull, so 
united with the skull as to give readily and to resist heat 
and cold, the larger portion of which is in addition covered 
with a growth of hair for the further protection of the 
brain. 

It is important in the delineation of character that the ex- 
aminer notes the thickness of the Scalp, its healthfulness, 
and the fineness or condition of the crop of hair it produces, 
a sure index to the healthy or inflamed condition of the 
Brain — also its quality is thus determined. 




THE HUMAN BRAIN OR ENCEPHALON. 

The Human Brain fills the entire cavity of the Skull. 
The Cerebrum or large Brain fills the entire upper por- 
tion of the Skull, and represents all qualities of Memory, 



AND FACULTIES OF THE MIND. 



II 



Idealism, Aspiration and Affections. The smaller Brain or 
Cerebellum fills the lower rear portion of the Skull, and 
controls all warmth, magnetic and propagating forces of the 
body. 

Both Brains are connected by the Commissura, and with 
the nervous system of the body by the Medula Oblongata, 
which is the enlarged upper end of the spinal cord. 

The Cerebrum is divided into two hemispheres, each rep- 
resenting and controlling the opposite side of the human 
body. The Brain is composed of two substances — gray and 
white, the gray substance being the outer one and known 
as the Dura Mater or gray Mater, containing the developed 
facets or reflectors of developed or cultivated nerve or 
Brain fibre. 

The greater the cultivation of the Brain, the greater the 
surface spreading of these nerve facets, which causes the 
convolutions of the brain by the crowding of the Brain sur- 
face within the cavity of the Skull. 

While the active Brain acts as a whole, it consists never- 
theless of a plurality of independent organs, each exercising 
independent functions like the body in response to the de- 
sire of the faculties of the mind. 

If the Brain were a single organ it could do but one thing 
at a time. Our own consciousness reveals to us the truth 
more fully than any statements made by others, and proves 
that the brain does perform many different functions at one 
time. 

Insane people are often deranged as to one single ob- 
ject, and sane people are pronounced in certain qualities and 
abilities while often very deficient in others. 

This treatise is only intended to awaken an interest and 
to guide the student to find his way, sufficient has been said 
for the intelligent thinker. Those indifferent may need 
more time before their intellect reaches understanding. 

It is needless to say that exercise develops every organ of 
the Brain the same as it does that of the body. 

Size of the Brain, other conditions being equal, is the 
measure of the aggregate of mental power, and the size of 
organs evidence their use by the faculty of the mind that 
controls them, each can be modified, restrained or immeas-

urably increased in efficiency by careful training and exer- 
cise. 

If you desire to make character reading your life work, 
study deeply into the Brain structure, its anatomical and 
physiological life, to be competent means to be as perfect 
as constant study of all that appertains to the study of man 
can make you. Correspond with the author, who will aid 
you. 

Williams' new Phrenological and Physiognomical Chart 
has simplified character reading, by subdividing all charac- 
ter into three temperaments, viz., vital, motive and mental. 

1. Vital or Animal Temperament: This temperament 
gives width to the head, especially to the region between 
the ears, and shows in the fleshy appearance of the body. 
If more pronounced than the other temperaments, it gives 
its owner great animal vigor, and therefore shows in all his 
acts the many animal tendencies observed in human nature. 

2. Motive or Social Temperament: This temperament 
gives length to the head back of the ear and the coronal re- 
gion, and is shown in the sinewy and the muscular develop- 
ment of the body. If pronounced, it determines its owner's 
tendencies to social and industrial life, and if dominant, 
will bring success through its possessor's persistent and 
constant effort in his undertakings. 

3. Mental or Nervous Temperament: This tempera- 
ment shows a .forward development of the head, giving 
breadth, height and length to the head forward of the ear, 
evidenced in the bodv by a delicate frame and nervous phy- 
sical organization; if dominant, it will urge its owner to a 
mental, professional or artistic life, rather than mechanics 
or husbandry. Consult your chart constantly and care- 
fully. Draw an imaginary line on the head to be examined, 
and deterrnine the dominant temperament; then proceed 
with your detail delineation. 

Moral Development: The moral tendencies are deter- 
mined by the development of the organs located in the 
space occupying the top of the head, enclosed by the outer 
lines of the three temperaments heretofore mentioned, 
which include the organs of Veneration, (Love, Law, Re- 



AND FACULTIES OF THE MIND.

spect,) Conscientiousness, Hope, Spirituality and Benevo- 
lence. 

We suggest the following system as best : 

1. Size of brain. 

2. Fibre of brain — quality. 

3. Constitutional condition of body. 

4. Temperaments. 

5. Organs, viz., 1st size. 2nd dull or sharp. 

(If dull they will act slowly, except under great pressure. 
If they are sharp, they will act quickly without much effort. 
Experience and constant practice will soon show you how 
to determine correctly.) 

6. Determine suitable avocation or profession for the 
Examined, which is always governed by the dominant 
temperament. 

7. Advise cautiously — yet fearlessly, and above all hon- 
estly and with much kindness. Never mislead or exagger- 
ate a quality either to flatter, or under-rate. Fear decep- 
tion as you would poison. 

Note. The old charts made by the first masters in this 
science enumerated the organs }n the order of their dis- 
covery. Their designations were not scientific in some in- 
stances, and the lot and block division limited the reader 
and misrepresented Nature's true methods. 

The old charts had to give way to later discoveries, and 
advanced methods ; and thus we present the new chart, 
more scientific because more correctly aiding the student, 
viz., the centers of the organs are designated by numbers 
representing the organ for which they stand and numbered 
in the order of their natural development. No. 1 being the 
first organ to develop and No. 43 the last. 

Organs are designated with corrected and scientific ap- 
pellations, and each name in the new chart is curved in 
such a manner as to show the trend of the development of 
the organ in the direction in which the same reads on the 
chart, leaving no divisions between organs ; for in one head 
an organ may develop abnormally and occupyy three times 
the space it may occupy in another head, often at the ex- 
pense of the adjoining organs, which then would show 
small. 



14 



DESCRIPTION OF ORGANS OF THE BRAIN 



New Organs have been discovered by the author and 
added, also other organs more definitely located. 

The subdivision of temperaments are more scientific 
We arrive at their determination by a simpler method, and 
the same has been reduced to three temperaments only, tc 
make character reading clear and easy to anyone, and this 
enables him to determine at sight the controlling elements 
in the character of the one to be examined. 

The addition of a physiognomical chart showing the facial 
correspondence as far as discovered, permits the student at 
a glance to read the human face scientifically correct. 

ORGANS. 

Each organ of the brain is indicated in the Author's new 
chart by numbers. Seek to find its relative location on the 
head — if large, the trend of the name will indicate to you 
the direction it should show in its development on the head. 
The convolution of the brain located immediately under the 
number designated, exerts constantly a pressure from within 
upon the healthful skull, until its action shows without. If 
all organs are equally active, the head may not show a single 
protuberance ; and though it may be round as a billard ball 
or smooth as an egg, size, organic quality and temperament 
will determine for you scientifically correct correct its 
owner's character and possibilities. 




PHYSIOGNOMY. 

Physiognomy is the science of character reading by the 
facial signs and the development of the face. 

The animal, the mental and even the spiritual character of 
man, stamps itself upon the face; and every line and curve, 



AND FACULTIES OF THE MIND. I5 

as well as the mouth, nose, eyes and ears has a definite 
meaning. Subject to as many moods as man's character man- 
ifests, the face shows them all, and for that reason the ex- 
pression of the face cannot always be relied upon except 
when perfectly at rest. 

The mouth tells then only too plainly the animal tenden- 
cies of its possessor — his sensual or refined nature, the 
masculine or feminate traits of his character. 

The nose in its architectural beauty of outline and 
strength expresses whether its owner would build hovels or 
palaces, finely wrought essays, addresses, poems, master- 
pieces of art and literature, or merely the outline of a coarse 
joke, or an ill-shapen effort to perpetuate its own lower 
tendencies. Instead of the finely chiselled, Grecian, art lov- 
ing olfactory organ, he may possess the strong conquering 
beak of the eagle, the conqueror, the warrior. Every part of 
the nose, the height, the breadth, the length, the develop- 
ment of the wings of the Nose, their droop or elevation — all 
have a meaning to the student. 

The eyes have been truly called the windows of the soul — 
through them the newborn infant with its lusterless eye 
looks into its tiny world no bigger than a cradle, with as 
much interest as it can command. 

Large eyes, small eyes, slit eyes and round eyes, deep-set 
eyes and those that bulge, eyes that look innocently into 
yours and those that like departing ghosts look from caverns 
of their own making — do they mean anything? It would 
require another volume as large as this and will be treated 
by the author fully in another publication on Physiognomy. 

We merely desire to awaken you, so that you may look 
and observe for yourselves. 

Brown eyes and black eyes, blue as the skies, pale eyes 
and gray eyes, those that see near and those that see far, 
all give the face expression and tell of their owners life with- 
in and without. 

The chin broad or narrow, projecting or receding, long or 
short, coarse or refined, how much they indicate to the 
observer.

to the face, dished or full, the oval, the round, the spuare 
face, all enter into the designation of its owner's character, 
it is for you to observe, to study nature's language written 
all over the face of man. Only a few expressions have been 
given in our chart to help you to find the way and lead you 
on to the deeper study of the human face. 




EXAMINATION OF CHILDREN. 

It is difficult to outline a special plan in the examination 
of children except the giving of such suggestions as are 
herein set forth. Children, much like plants, represent var- 
iety, some of which mature earlier than others and bear 
fruit long before others come to maturity. 

Again let us recommend to students to follow carefully, 
instruction given in the Williams' Phrenological Chart it- 
self. The branches of the brain will not produce results un- 
til its blossoms catch the inspiration of sunshine and 
warmth from without, the friction from the gentle 
breezes, of heat and cold and atmospheric conditions before 
the bud opens to give forth its fragrance — so the brain sur-

faces must first delicately touch the inner surface of the 
skull before its rythmic action can bring forth harmony, 
sound and expression. 

Only a few of the organs first enumerated will respond in 
early life, because the others have not been awakened by 
its possessor for use. 

Much depends on the parent, the nurse and the teacher, 
and often brightness in a child in early life is due to their 
efforts rather than to the child's own native resource. 

The awakening of the faculties of the mind and conse- 
quent development of the organs is due to the thoughtful 
training, as well as the abuse and ignorance of those in 
charge, and much damage results to the child by the pre- 
mature development of faculties that find no use in the 
child's early life, and should remain dormant, until nature 
in its fuller development requires them. 

For that reason parents, nurses and teachers should be 
careful students of this science to guide their ward intelli- 
gently. 

EXPLANATION OF TABLES. 

The strength of the several vital functions and elements 
of the mind is estimated in the scale of seven, the several 
degrees are indicated by numerals 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7; 1 indi- 
cating very weak, 2 weak, 3 moderate, 4 average, 5 good, 6 
strong and 7 verv strong. The examiner will indicate the 
degree of strength of each function or element by placing 
the figure representing it in the first column to the right. 
When an element is estimated to be half way between two 
degrees it will be indicated by two figures as 3 to 4, or 5 to 
6, which is equivalent to 3J or 5-J. Where an element is a 
fraction above or below a degree the plus (x) or minus ( — ) 
mark will be used. Where an element should be cultivated, 
or restrained the examiner will place C for cultivate, and 
R for restrain in the second column to the right. The pages 
on which the descriptions may be found are indicated by 
the printed numerals in the third column. 

A. printed chart can only indicate the degree of strength 
and possibilities of the several elements of the mind; since 
mental operations and character are the result of the com- 
bined action of several elements, it is impossible to make 
a printed chart that will accurately describe character, the

markings, however, indicate the actual and relative strength 
of the several primary elements and the descriptions indi- 
cate their probable manifestations in character.

L— ORGANIC QUALITY. 

(7,)— THOSE HAVING ORGANIC QUALITY VERY FINE. 

Aie extremely fine grained, ethereal, high toned, senti- 
mental, intense in emotion, very susceptible to impresions ; 
suffer and enjoy in a high degree ; are easily wounded by a 
word ; are very much prone to extremes of thought, feeling 
and action; are intensely alive to every environment; are 
seldom, if ever, fully appreciated or thoroughly understood ; 
ideals too high to ever be realized in life ; are too visionary ; 
are repelled by whatever is coarse and gross; constantly 
suffer from the realities of life. Must cultivate a more 
matter-of-fact, common-place turn of mind; live more in 
the real and less m the ideal or suffer intensely for a short 
time and die early.— -Restrain. 

(6)— ORGANIC QUALITY FINE 

Are fine grained, delicately organized and emotional ; ca- 
pable of enjoying and suffering in a high degree; are com- 
plex, poetic, intense and full of human nature ; prone to 
over-doing and are too highly animated; feelings too near 
the surface. Should learn to live more in the real and less 
in the ideal world. 

(S.)— ORGANIC QUALITY GOOD 

Are well organized; sufficiently refined, can appreciate the

Are simply animal in human form. (Only found in the 
lower forms of savage life). 

TO CULTIVATE ORGANIC QUALITY

of pure water within and without. Avoid all forms of in- 
temperance, overeating, especially avoid pork and other 
coarse animal food ; sleep and work abundantly in pure air; 
associate with the good and refined ; exercise all of the fac- 
ulties and sentiments intensely; strive to enjoy art and 
literature ; study beauty, poetry and sentiment everywhere ; 
be more intensely alive to all that is good, pure and ele-

TO RESTRAIN ORGANIC QUALITY 

Live more in the physical and the real, less in the ideal; 
be more practical, common place, matter of fact; do not 
be so sensitive to criticism or fastidious about the little 
things of life ; adapt yourself more to your environments ; 
learn, to appreciate the good there is in others without be- 
ing so much annoyed by their weaknesses and short com- 
ings ; remember that life is a reality and they who would 
make a success and be happy must conform to their en- 
vironments.

limited ; need abundance of rest and recreation, and give 
out at once if deprived of sleep. Must avoid all unnatural 
and unnecessary drain upon the vitality and make the cul- 
tivation of health paramount. — Cultivate. 

(2.)— HEALTH WEAK 

Are quite feeble and sickly; all the desires and efforts are 
limited : the vital functions are so poorly performed that the 
brain is but partially nourished so that the power to enjoy 
is very low; there is little ambition and less ability to do; 
can well afford to sacrifice everything and practice the most 
rigid self denial in order to regain the health. — Cultivate.

Are barely alive and had better prepare to greet eternity's 
gray dawn than to battle Avith the gathering shadows of

ing, nutritious and not in too large quantities; study and 
obey the laws of health ; do not worry, fret or overdo ; asso-

a world-wide influence ; with oroper cultivation are capable 
of reaching the highest walks of science and literature.

DESCRIPTION OF ORGANS OF THE BRAIN 



With Quality and Activity low will evince great power on 
great occasions, but will be too sluggish to be easily aroused 
and be too slow to be fully appreciated. Where the health 
is but moderate are constantly in danger of overdoing; 
exhaust all forces through the brain and leave the gang- 
lionic nervous system weak and powerless; must estab- 
lish a balanced condition between body and brain. — Re- 
strain. 

(6.) — SIZE OF BRAIN LARGE 

Head measures from 23 to 24 inches. Are like 7 only less in 
degree ; have great mental powers ; take a broad and compre- 
hensive view of all subjects; with strong combinations of 
Temperaments and Quality are capable of rising to great 
eminence, of conducting large, extensive business; have 
great force of character and superior judgment; will make 
their influence felt in whatever direction the forces are turn-

much influence over others. With a sluggish temperament 
and low Organic Qualit)^ will manifest ordinary mental 
qualities and be quite limited in the capabilities ; may be 
quite strong in certain directions but lack the power of the 
all-round genius. 

(4.) — SIZE OF BRAIN AVERAGE 

Head measures from 21 to 22 inches. AVith excellent 
Quality and Activity 6 have a quick, clear, intense mind, 
capable of doing much in the way of study, business and 
enterprise ; may possess marked genius in the line of special 
development, but are only moderate in many of the mental 
qualities; lack the brain capacity to become great in many 
lines ; are limited in originality of thought, power and influ- 
ence. With low Organic Qualities and Activity are very

perament and Activity all 6 may manifest a considerable 
force, feeling, sentiment or mentality in special directions but

quality and poor development of the top head, will be 
coarse, groveling and vulgar. 

(5.)— VITAL TEMPERAMENT GOOD

(4.)— VITAL TEMPERAMENT AVERAGE 

Have sufficient vitality: and strength to sustain life and im- 
part energy to all the functions, but are limited in physical 
strength, warmth of emotion, power to enjoy and brilliancy

lar pulse, small abdomen, irreguar appetite, tame energies, 
feeble emotions, limited ability to enjoy, think, feel, live ; 
must cultivate the health generally and the weak functions 
particularly. — Cultivate 

TO GULTIVATE VITAL TEMPERAMENT 
Ascertain the cause of the deficient vitality; if one or more 
of the vital organs are especially weak set about at once to 
strengthen them ; (see article on health, also special di- 
rections for each of the vital organs under their respective 
heads) ; give special attention to the food that it be whole- 
some, nutritious, easy of digestion and non-stimulating; be 
much in the open air ; exercise until fatigued and rest and 
sleep in a well ventilated room ; expand the chest by deep 
breathing; spat and pound the muscles, abdomen and chest, 
this will quicken the circulation and excite the vital organs 
to activity; bathe frequently and rub briskly. Banish all 



AND FACULTIES OF THE MIND. 



29 



care, worry, forboclings and never indulge in "the blues"; 
get into light; happy, mirthful company; be jolly and geni- 
al ; laugh and grow fat ; never entertain the thought of 
weakness; deny that yon were ever sick or expect to be; 
bear what has to be borne, but do not talk or think about it ; 
use your will power to aid every function, to resist every 
disease and overcome every opposition; seek the good, the 
pure, the bright, the beautiful and the sunny at all times. 

TO RESTRAIN VITAL TEMPERAMENT 

Those who manufacture a superabundance of vitality 
should eat sparingly and of simple food, avoid rich gravies, 
butter, sweets, fats, pastry, superfine flour, potatoes and 
pork meats ; the diet should be composed mainly of fruits ; 
sl.ould use the daily sponge bath followed by brisk rubbing 
and a thorough steam or Turkish bath as often as once a 
month. Take daily active exercise or even hard work in 
the open air. The surplus of vitality must be worked off 
or its accumulation will set the appeties and passions on 
fire, replace the muscles of fat, make the mind dull and the 
morals slack. Work off surplus vitality through the mus- 
cles, the intellect and the sentiments. 

V.— MOTIVE TEMPERAMENT. 

(7.) — MOTIVE TEMPERAMENT VERY STRONG 

Have long, strong bones, tough, fibrous muscles, angular 
form and features, great power of endurance, and a wiry 
physique. Are firm, positive, decided, ambitious, independ- 
ned, self-reliant, aggressive ; have more strength than re- 
finement, more will than sentiment, more tact than talent, 
more given to physical exercise than mental application, to 
out-door sports than indoor confinement, to observation 
than reflection, to execution than planning. — Restrain. 

(6.) — MOTIVE TEMPERAMENT STRONG 

Are like 7 in general characteristics only less in degree; 
have a strong physique, indomitable will and are better 
executer than planner. With the Mental Temperament 
strong, will be inclined to study, thought and research ; 
with the Moral Sentiment added will be given to reform, 



3o 



DESCRIPTION OF ORGANS OF THE BRAIN 



sentiment and philanthropy; with a strong Vital Tempera- 
ment and feelings, will be intensely impulsive, zealous and 
influential; with strong or perverted appetites and a weak 
moral nature, may become deeply depraved and exert a 
powerful influence for evil. The mental characteristics are 
so pronounced that whatever direction they take for good 
or evil, for books or business, they carry everything by 
storm, drawing everyone they can influence in line with 
themselves ; want even-body to believe as they do in poli- 
tics, religion and all other questions. 

(5.)— MOTIVE TEMPERAMENT GOOD 

Have strong compact physique, clear cut rather than angu- 
lar features ; are sufficiently aggressive ; are rather decided ; 
are subject to the combinations described in 6 only in less 
degree. 

(4.)— MOTIVE. TEMPERAMENT AVERAGE 

Not especially deficient in motive power but for manual 
labor more would be better; if the Mental Temperament 
is 6 or 7 will prefer mental to physical labor ; with the Vital 
strong will prefer light work or business rather than books. 
— Cultivate. 

(3.)— MOTIVE TEMPERAMENT MODERATE 

The bone and muscular system is somewhat deficient ; the 
form and features are deficient in framework ; there is little 
power of physical endurance ; dislike physical exertion, or 
long mental application. The energies are lacking in ag- 
gressiveness, the feelings m constancy, the conscience in 
stability, the will in firmness, the ambition in persistency, 
the sentiments in fixedness, the mind in continuity and 
the character in individually. These natural tendencies 
may be greatly modified by the strength of the Vital and 
Mental Temperaments or brain development. With the 
Vital 6 or 7 are rather small boned, but plump and well 
formed ; are inclined to be sympathetic, sentimental and 
emotional ; if the Mental is also good will be fervent, bril- 
liant, excitable, enthusiastic and sensitive ; may have splen- 
did business talents, much taste, refinement and delicacy 
of feeling; if the Organic Quality be good will be especially 
refined, poetic, artistic and sentimental ; with low Organic

Quality and deficient Mental Temperament, the Vital 
strong have soft unstable physique, unreliable character, 
sluggish intellect and ungovernable appetites. — Cultivate. 
(2.) — (1.) — MOTIVE TEMPERAMENT WEAK AND VERY WEAK 

Are sadly deficient in bone and muscle, physical energy and 
mental stability; are emotional, transient and fickle; should 
cultivate the muscles assiduously. — Cultivate. 

TO CULTIVATE MOTIVE TEMPERAMENT 

To strengthen the muscles use them ; study the anatomy 
so as to be able to bring all the muscles into play. Exercise 
to be beneficial and effectual, must be general, regular and 
moderate rather than violent ; the amount must be deter- 
mined by the constitution but every one should take suffi- 
cient exercise each day to be physically tired at night. By 
the constant use and contraction of the muscles they will 
become strong and firm and the ligaments and bones will 
be enlarged. Children in whom this Temperament is de- 
ficienc should be allowed to play in the open air, given tasks 
to perform that require physical exertion, allowed to run, 
romp, climb, play ball, skate, row, do anything and every- 
thing that requires muscular exertion and physical activity. 

TO RESTRAIN MOTIVE TEMPERAMENT 

Use the muscles less and the brain more, convert the vital 
energies into thought, feeling and sentiment.

ures. Are thoughtful, earnest and imaginative. With the 
motive Temperament 6 and the Vital 5 will be tough, wiry,

energetic, keen and highly aggressive; practical in execu- 
tion, profound in planning; proficient in either the business, 
professional or literary world; have strong feelings, and if 
the Moral Sentiments predominate will be fond of occult 
sciences and psychological studies. If the Vital be 6 and 
the Motive only 3 or 4, will be especially inclined toward 
light literary work or business where variety is afforded; 
will be intensely emotional, have refined but ardent feel- 
ings; more brilliancy than depth. — Restrain. 

(5.)— MENTAL TEMPERAMENT GOOD. 

Are well endowed with mental power; are capable of ac- 
complishing much in the way of business, mechanics, books 
or the professions; the natural bent of the life will depend 
much upon the relative strength of the other temperaments 
and the Organic Quality. 

(4.) — M ENTAL TEMPERAMENT AVERAGE 

Have fair mental power if it be properly called out, but 
must be thoroughly cultured to accomplish much, in the 
way of stud;/ or literary work. With the Motive 6 or 7, 
are more inclined towards manual labor than study; with 
the Vital strong, prefer business, stocks and trade to books 
or hard work — Cultivate. 

(3.)— MENTAL TEMPERAMENT MODERATE 

Do not like study; are rather slow to learn, dull of com- 
prehension ; not very highly animated ; feel and enjoy in

ful in animal force, bat decidedly deficient in animation, 
sentiment, imagination and refinement. — Cultivate.

Have a small brain, blunt, coarse features, dull eye, ex- 
pressionless face, low retreating forehead; are exceedingly 
dull of comprehension, deficient in judgment; have a poor 
memory, a dislike for books, coarse feelings, little or no 
sentiment, are void of imagination; are decidedly animal. — 
Cultivate. 



AND FACULTIES OF THE MIND. 



33 



TO CULTIVATE MENTAL TEMPERAMENT 

Avoid all coarse meats, pork, sausage, etc. ; the coarser 
vegetables ; direct the forces more to the brain ; strive to 
feel more intensefy, to enjoy more keenly; have a high ideal 
, and bend every energy in that direction; give more ex- 
pression to the sentiments, since expression of any power 
strengthens it : strive to appreciate beauty and poetry in 
books and nature ; study the fine arts ; spend a few moments 
each day with the poets; read, study, imagine, invent; 
i learn to think independently; have an opinion on all sub- 
i jects; avoid all low associates; give less time and thought 
to appetite, business and manual exercise and more to in- 
tellectual improvement ; associate and converse with intelli- 
gent people; most of all study human nature in all its 
phases as this, more than any other study, will call into 
play all the mental powers. 

TO RESTRAIN MENTAL TEMPERAMENT 

Rigidly avoid tea, coffee, tobacco, liquor, condiments, ex- 
citement, worry and all extremes physical or mental. Di- 
rect the forces towards the muscles and the strengthening 
of the vital organs ; strive to relish the food, physical pleas- 
ures and manual labor more and study books and sentiment 
less ; live more in the real and less in the ideal ; be more 
practical and less theoretical ; be more substantial and less 
artificial ; learn to do the ordinary things of life without 
becoming so animated, intense and positive; sleep, eat and 
j work more; think and feel less.

everything to satisfy the palate; allow the thought to have 
altogether too much influence upon the character; are very 
prone to over-eat ; never stop as long as a thing tastes good 
or until in misery; are very apt to suffer from dyspepsia. 
From taking more food than nature requires, the system is 
apt to become clogged and the brain fatty, the temperament 
sluggish, the feelings gross and the mind dull. Must curb

want of nourishment; are apt to be a poor cook and pro- 
vider; with more appetite would have more vitality, life and 
pleasure. — Cultivate. 

(1.)— ALIMENTIVENESS VERY WEAK 

Have very little relish for food; judgment should supply 
the deficiency that the body may be well nourished with an 
abundance of plain wholesome food. — Cultivate. 

TO CULTIVATE ALIMENTIVENESS 

First see to it that the digestive and assimilative functions 
are normal, with these strong, appetite is seldom wanting; 
then carefully select the best of these things relished most; 
have the table furnishings attractive; dine with congenial 
happy companions ; give everything up to the relishing of 
the meal ; eat slowly and let pleasant thoughts seasoned 
with the ludicrous and mirthful attend. 



AND FACULTIES OF THE MIND. 



35 



TO RESTRAIN ALIMENTIVENESS 

First remove the unnatural hankering and irritation result- 
ing from inflammation of the stomach by a rigidly spare 
non-stimulating diet, avoid everything in the way of condi- 
ments, tobacco and stimulants ; drink very little with the 
food, but abundantly of pure water two hours after meals; 
then subject the Appetite, to judgment, if necessary lay out 
a reasonable allowance, eat that very slowly, that it may 
better satisfy the Appetite, and when that is eaten, leave the 
table, even though yon feel hungry; the abnormal appetite 
will gradually diminish, if thus constantly restricted,

TO RESTRAIN VITATIVENESS 

Avoid a morbid love of life and dread of death; think less,

(7.)— SEXUALITY VERY STRONG 

Are extremely warm hearted, locving, magnetic and are ir- 
resistibly attracted by the opposite sex; when under the 
influence of this power are very gentle, sympathetic and 
kind to the loved one ; must have some one to love and re- 
ciprocate the affections; without love everything seems to 
go wrong and even life is a failure; all the other feelings, 
sentiments, ambitions and thoughts are too much under the 
control of this master feeling, and if the Moral Sentiments 
be weak or prone to abuse this power. — Restrain 

(6)— SEXUALITY STRONG 

Are like 7 only less in degree; very loving, warm hearted 
and affectionate ; a great admirer of personal beauty as well 
as intellectual attainments in the opposite sex; should care- 
fully control the love element that it may only exert an 
influence for good and thereby be a blessing for self and 
others. With fine Organic Quality will be extremely poetic 
and sentimental in the love nature; with strong Kindness 
are very tender towards the loved one ; with strong Secre-

tiveness may be reserved, but with Secretiveness and 
Caution moderate are too gushing, trusting, outspoken 
and are very apt to suiter from the selfishness of others, 
are apt to love not wisely but too well. — Restrain. 

SEXUALITY GOOD 

Are loving and effectionate towards the opposite sex ; suffi- 
ciently ardent but can usually control the desires ; have 
quite enough of the love nature, but are apt to be controll- 
ed by the stronger elements of the mind. 

(4) — (3)— SEXUALiTY AVERAGE AND MODERATE 

Are fairly warm hearted, and affectionate towards the 
object of the affections: appreciate the opposite sex, but 
are not especially controlled by them; can enjoy the 
marriage relation but need to have the love nature 
called out by a loving companion. With strong Conju- 
gality and a congenial companion would be most faith- 
ful, constant and true, neither seeking nor desiring the 
affections of others ; Avith strong Secretiveness are very 
apt to disappoint the companion by giving too little ex- 
pression to love. — Cultivate. 

(2)— (1)— SEXUALITY WEAK AND VERY WEAK

standpoint than from a desire to exchange affections. — 
Cultivate. 

TO CULTIVATE SEXUALITY 

Go much in the society of the opposite sex; observe closely 
and strive to fully appreciate their excellencies, overlooking 
their faults and admiring their virtues ; be as courteous, 
tender, kind and obliging as possible : especially, associate 
with those having a very strong, loving, magnetic nature: 
since like excites like, love excites love. To associate with 
a loving nature will call out this power faster than in any 
other way; under such associations, strive to feel and re- 
spond to the strong affections of the other, if married ele- 
vate the love to a purely soul sympathy and strive to ad- 



40 



DESCRIPTION OF ORGANS OF THE BRAIN 



mine all that is good, lofty and sentimental in the con- 
jugal mate. Love to be strong and pure must draw its sus- 
tenance from the skies rather than from the earth. 

TO RESTRAIN SEXUALITY 

See to it that the appetites are not perverted, so that love 
is unduly inflamed; strive to live more in the intellectual 
and moral; avoid all books of fiction or conversation of a 
character calculated to excite affection; seek the associa- 
tion of the opposite sex only for the interchange of pure 
thoughts, lofty sentiments and soul sympathy; remember 
that the force needs directing rather than restraining, for 
if manifested only toward the companion or in that higher 
communion of soul with soul it can only bring pleasure; 
avoid bringing everything to the plane of affection and 
do not allow the ardent affections to go out and excite 
love in others only to pass them by and leave them dis- 
appointed.

of bile from the excessive use of fats, greases, sweets, etc., 
or that the nerves are not partially paralyzed from strong 
tea coffee or other narcotics and that the brain is thorough- 
ly supplied with pure blood that has been throughly oxyge- 
nized by deep breathing : this will give a physical possibilty 
for memory culture. Secondly, read slowly, concentrate 
the mind upon it when being read ; at the close of the chap- 
ter or period, think over and definitely fix in the mind the 
points that are to be remembered. The power to recall is 
governed largely by the definiteness and fixedness of the 
truth in the mind. Associate things that are difficult to 
remember with things that are easily recalled, that the one 
may suggest the other. Read and learn only such things 
as are of value, then make a practice of recalling and tell- 
ing what has been read. Above all things avoid trashy 
literature, as nothing is more destructive to memory than 
the crowding through the mind what is to be at once dis- 
missed. Learn some new fact every day ; tax the memory 
by committing and reciting.

sent from the loved one, keep the good qualities and pleas- 
ant memories ever uppermost in the mind.

Strive to see the good qualities of all rather than idealise 
one ; do not allow the affections to become so concentrated 
upon one person as to make life's happiness, successes and 
failures depending upon that one; retain the individuality, 
sufficient to be able to stand alone if need be ; if the object

often gain more by yielding a little than by persistent con- 
tention ; avoid argument and opposition ; be more suscep-

Are extremely anxious to accumulate ; too close in making 
bargains; want the earth; are not satisfied with possessing 
the necessities of life: the whole ambition seems to* be to 
get and keep ; are too anxious to get rich. With strong 
Secretiveness and moderate Conscience find it very diffi- 
cult to be honest ; drive a close bargain and are apt to justify 
self in stretching the truth to make a sale; with strong 
Conscience and weak Kindness, may be honest, but are 
close and penurious; with strong Friendship and Kindness, 
may do much to help friends, but will give more advise 
than money; with strong Approbation may seem liberal 
when in a crowd to make a display ; with weak Self Reliance 
are apt to be little and close ; with Caution weak and strong 
Approbation and a good intellect will be a shrewd finan- 
cier and possess great natural ability for accumulating 
wealth, seem to be able to turn everything into money, 
but with moderate Approbation and strong Caution will be 
avaricious and miserly. — Restrain.

Are anxious to accumulate, industrious in business, suf- 
ficiently economical; can not bear extravagance; may be- 
come a good financier: like to make money but want it 
rather for its uses ; the manifestation of Acquisitiveness will 
depend upon the strength of the other powers. 

(4.) — ACQUISITIVENESS AVERAGE 
Desire to accumulate but want property for its uses ; have 
no special desire to hoard up ; with a good intellect have 
more ability for making than saving; with strong Kindness

Are deficient in the inclination and ability to accumulate ; 
want money for what it will buy; can be economical and

saving when circumstances postively demand it, but with 
plenty are too liberal and free with it; may make and save 
money by an intellectual calculation or for the pretection 
of family and friends, but must have some other incentive 
than simply the instinct of hoarding or would never get and 
keep much. With strong Caution may provide for future 
want, but with strong Friendship anl Kindness can not say 
"No" ; and are apt to endorse, and especially if Caution be 
weak may be reckless and extravagant; should buy only 
what could be paid for, do strictly a cash business and in 
every way strive to improve this power. — Culticate. 

(I.)— ACQUISITIVENESS VERY WEAK

TO CULTIVATE ACQUISITIVENESS 
Place the highest estimate on values ; keep a strict account 
of all expenses ; see wherein even the smallest amount can 
be saved : never throw anything away that could be used 
by self or others; learn to use all scraps, odds and ends; 
watch the markets ; study the shifts of trade the lives of 
financiers and see how money may be honestly, yet rapidly 
accumulated; engage in some business and bend every 
energy in that direction ; be careful in the choice and do that 
one thing well ; do a cash business ; count the money often 
and see to it that there is always a little ahead ; call the in- 
tellect, affections and ambition to aid Acquisitiveness t in 
the desire to acquire. 

TO RESTRAIN ACQUISITIVENESS 

Think less of money and property values ; use the intellect 
and the Moral Sentiments more and Acquisitiveness less; 
avoid sacrificing other pleasures to accumulate property; be 
contented with reasonable and honorable success ; remem-

Observe closely the relative size, proportion and dimen- 
sion of everything; estimate with the eye and then use the 
line, square or compas to justify the judgment; form an 
estimate of how many paces it is to a given point when 
walking, then count to see how near you are right ;' if hand-

weighing, and by constant measurement and closely com- 
paring dimensions the faculty of Size will be strengthened.

ners, politeness, intelligence and most of all upon personal 
integrity, reputation and character. 

TO RESTRAIN APPROBATION 
Be less alive to the opinions of others, less sensitive to a 
word ; do and say what is believed to be right, then pay no 
attention to what others may say; lay aside all affectation, 
artificiality and be more natural and independent in every-

cess of others to chaff; subject this sentiment to the intel- 
lect, that judgment rather than pride may govern,

Secretiveness and with moderate Conscience may resort to 
little undignified tricks in order to make a cent ; with Cau-

other powers. — Cultivate. 

TO CULTIVATE SELF ESTEEM 
First expunge from the character everything that is bad, 
vile, degrading, impure or unworthy, so there may be a 
consciousness of inward goodness, purity and honor; have 
a conscience void of offense so there can be no just condem- 
nation from within or without, then throw back the head; 
place a higher estimate upon personal charms, efforts, 
opinions, time ; value self too much to be found connected 
with anything little, degrading or cheap; place a higher

estimate upon personal opinions and decide for self; be 
more independent; remember that it is better to make a 
mistake once in a while from an error in personal judgment 
than to be the tool of others all the time; remember that 
the most high!)' educated know but very little, and there- 
fore if one knows his own business well, he has no cause 
for self depreciation. 

TO RESTRAIN SELF ESTEEM 
Always bear in mind this natural tendency to overrate self ; 
think how extremely unpleasant and obnoxious personal 
egotism ; s in others, then be sufficently humble as not to 
commit the same offense against others; call out the Moral 
Sentiments and especially Kindness, that there may be 
more appreciation and respect for others; take one glance 
into the boundless universe of truth or the achievements 
of genius, then look w r ithin, and the insignificance of self 
can be better apprecated ; avoid assuming authority or 
usurping positions that belong to others; remember that 
the finite should always feel humble in the presence of the 
infinite.

and its needs of a closer walk with God ; be constantly re- 
spectful of law, virtue, old age and whatever is good and 
sacred in one's love in praise to God, the power to feel, en-

suspicious of evil, or where it combines with the observing 
powers to produce the impudent stare. 

INSPIRATION NO. 43. 
(7)— INSPIRATION VERY STRONG 

The true Prophet and Seer, providing he has the comple- 
ment of an harmoniously developed head; whatever faculty, 
however, is large will be augmented by this faculty of In- 
spiration. 

Inspiration makes the enthusiast; it was large in Jesus 
and with large Benevolence, Reason, Ideality, complement- 
ed with a fine-grained nervous organization, made Him 
the humanitarian, moralist and reformer that He was. 

Large in Confucius, Socrates and Marcus Aurelius, with 
the aspiring and moral group strongly developed, made 
them the moral philosophers and teachers. 

Large in Columbus inspired him to discover the new 
world. 

Large in Napoleon, made him the enthusiastic conqueror ; 
his very presence inspired his soldiers. 

It makes the enthusiast if large in anyone, and by reason 
thereof, any dominant faculty enters into the expression of 
a man's life so as to enable him to become inspired in his 
undertakings; he inspires others to dare and do, and is 
a natural born leader in all of his undertakings in all avoca- 
tions and professions of life. 

(6)— INSPIRATION STRONG 

Are very much like 7, only less in degree ; show great 
power, and are much interested in their undertakings; with 
Friendship large aie easily influenced by others, and take 
a deep interest in their friends' affairs. They take oppor- 
tunity bv the forelock, and generally succeed. 

(5)— INSPIRATION GOOD 

Tn degree less than 6, and for that reason need some deep 
interest to stir them enthusiastically. 

(4)— INSPIRATION AVERAGE

extremes. Put more ginger into your life, enthuse more in 
your undertakings. 

If otherwise angular or poorly organized, are eccentric 
without good cause. — Cultivate.

DESCRIPTION OF ORGANS OF THE BRAIN 



(3)— INSPIRATION MODERATE 

They belong- to the Digger Family. Will not rise above 
their environments except by hard knocks ; they generally 
remam at the task assigned; cannot encourage others and 
need much to arouse them. — Cultivate in practice. 

(1 and 2)— INSPIRATION WEAK— VERY WEAK 
Manifest no power; never enthuse; are not searching for 
new light ; are not interested in reform or progress ; are 
very indifferent about all matters, and do not care whether 
the world moves or not, except possibly when it concerns 
their present selfish needs.. — Cultivate. 

TO CULTIVATE INSPIRATION 
It is the faculty that uplifts and draws you onward to 
higher things, the last of all faculties to develop in the nor- 
mal head. Look higher constantly, climb the mountain 
tops of life. Never be satisfied until 3*011 have reached the 
highest attainments. This world needs top-notch men, 
leaders; men that enthuse and inspire great undertakings; 
men that seek light and guidance from higher than mortal 
source. N<ever be the grovelling, creeping worm, stand 
erect, look up, leave the nest and try your wings. Mount on 
the pinions of eternal thought, until your forehead touches 
the stars. Awaken Inspiration by being out in Nature where 
pure breaths fill your lungs, at. the seashore — on the moun- 
tain tops. Watch the sun rise and note its beautiful set- 
ting; linger long under its influence. Attend often enthusi- 
astic gatherings and take part. Leave the mourners to 
bury their dead. Sunshine of the heart and mind is eter- 
nal ; enter upon everything joyfully. Look for the eternal 
and lasting, it will aid you at all times, if you yourself do 
your allotted part. 

TO RESTRAIN INSPIRATION 

To avoid heartaches and disappointments, do not lose your 
wav. Make yourself acquainted as far as possible with the 
facts concerning your undertakings ; Reason, too, should 
guide you. Above all. before you bring others under your 
influence, for such you do naturally, question the righteous- 
ness of your enthusiasm before Inspiration dominates you 
and others. This is the beginning of your knowledge, 
seek for more light until you master self.
